A LeBron James team is never desperate.

The modern athlete is an individual corporation. I'm not quite sure it's very good for sport, or good for team work, or those different things that sport says it's about. This is about business.

Working with all of these kids is great. It doesn't get any better than this, to come down and inspire kids who want to play the game of basketball and put smiles on their faces.

I enjoy the competition and whatever it takes throughout the competition, I will do it.

The best option for me to do was not to move. I tried, and any little nudge or step, it the cramping would get worse. It was the whole left leg ... nearly the whole left side. ... I drank a lot of fluids at halftime. I even changed my uniform.

If I didn't believe in this team and this organization and the direction that we're headed, I wouldn't have signed the extension.

I don't know any other other team that got to the finals without two all stars.
